Rotary Club of Mount Everest Lalitpur plants 250+ trees on July 25, 2025.

98 volunteers including members of Rotary Club of Mount Everest Lalitpur, Guthiyaars from Karunaya Bungadyo Guthi (Barahi, Yanwa, Gha: Ku, and Boshin), and ACE the Himalaya, we successfully planted 250+ tree saplings (mostly Dhupi and Tej paat) on 26th July, 2025 at Dalchowki View Tower area, Konjyosom Rural Municipality, Lalitpur.

The trees from this community forest are used to build the Rato Matchhendra Nath chariot (करुणामय बुंग द्यो), which is one of the longest running annual festivals of Lalitpur.

With the objective to engage local community and to address the long-term sustainability of the trees planted today, regular watering, weed control, maintenance, and growth monitoring will be jointly taken care by the Dalchowki Forest Users Community group and The Karunaya Bungadyo Guthi.

We are proud to support the Cultural Heritage of Lalitpur and Nepal!

• A Fire Extinguisher is a handheld active fire protection device usually filled with a dry or wet chemical used to extinguish or control small fires, often in
emergencies.
• Fire extinguishers play a vital role in any fire protection plan in any environment.
• They are a first aid response to fire and can help prevent catastrophic danger to property and even loss of life
• As discussed and agreed upon in RCMEL Regular Weekly Meeting, 6 Fire extinguishers (filled state) was handed over to Wada No 21 by president
• The Wada in Mr. Rabindra Maharjan expressed his gratitude and support that the RCMEL had shown with this gesture. The event took place on behalf of a well-coordinated effort by Rotary Community Corps (RCC) President Mr. Kiran Maharjan. The Fire Extinguisher worth about Nrs. 70000.00 was sponsored by Atullya Foundation.
